The IESG has approved a request to register the "application/csta+xml" MIME media type in the standards tree. This media type is a product of Ecma International. The IESG contact persons are Ted Hardie and Scott Hollenbeck. MIME media type name: application MIME subtype name: csta+xml Required parameters: (none) Optional parameters: (none) Encoding considerations: This content type uses XML, employing UTF-8 character encoding. Security considerations: This content type is designed to carry information about users involved with communications which may be considered private information. For example, the identity of a calling party in a voice call. This content type is also designed to be used to control communication calls and communication devices such as telephones. Appropriate precautions should be taken to insure that applications observing and controlling communications and communication devices using CSTA are authorized to do so. Interoperability considerations: application/csta+xml documents are specified by the XML schemas standardized in ECMA-323. Published specification: The published Standard ECMA-323 is available at: http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-323.htm Applications which use this media type: The application/csta+xml MIME type can be used to identify CSTA XML (ECMA-323) instance documents. Additional information: CSTA XML (ECMA-323) is an application level protocol that enables an application to control and observe communications involving various types of media (voice calls, video calls, instant messages, Email, SMS, Page, etc.) and devices associated with the media.
